... of extracellular volume fraction and excess extracellular fluid, i.e. oedema. The model suggests that the proportional increase in absolute Na + content and concentration due to different degrees of oedema is higher than the parallel increase in water content, thus making Na + a more sensitive index to detect...

... and frontal cortex samples were taken immediately after death. The tissue was investigated using light and electron microscopy and compared with frontal cortex samples taken from sham-operated controls. Septic pigs had 49.5% more perimicrovessel oedema than sham pigs. However, the tight junctions between...

...D. O. Bates; J. R. Levick; P. S. Mortimer 1. The pathophysiology of chronic arm oedema after treatment of breast cancer was investigated by collecting serum and subcutaneous interstitial fluid from the affected and contralateral arms by the wick method (both arms) and by aspiration (oedematous arm...

There was also a significant correlation between sodium retention and the increase in leg volume, which suggests that oedema may...
